Active Directory Azure Iaas Migration Report Virtual Machine Readiness Assessment Ready Set Move Ready – Are you still weighing the pros and cons of moving your virtual machines to Microsoft Azure? Do you understand the various migration scenarios that it supports? Have you thought about your identity provider? Are there any roles or features that are unsupported? This section runs you through all such questions to provide you with a better understanding of what is required to move your machines to Microsoft Azure. Set - Do you know what hardware is available to use? Do you need to create your own virtual network? How much storage do you need? What items do you need to be aware of with regards to security? This section provides the answers to all these questions and prepares you for moving your machines to Microsoft Azure. Move - Do you have an Azure subscription yet? Do you need help provisioning your virtual machine or moving your data? Do you need to monitor your new virtual machine? How do you get support once you have moved your machine? This section addresses these common questions and simplifies the process of moving your machines to Microsoft Azure.

Virtual Machine Readiness Assessment What we checked The checklist below provides an overall indicator of what has been done so far and what is still left to do. Use it as a roadmap to understand and identify the next steps. Ready Understand the benefits Choose your scenario Determine identity provider needs Review unsupported roles and features Set Evaluate hardware needs Configure your network Plan for storage Prepare a disaster recovery plan Secure your environment Ensure a healthy environment Optimize your configuration Move Get a subscription Provision your virtual machine Move your data Monitor your environment Get support No work is required. You are good to go! Planning or configuration is required before you move. Virtual Machine Readiness Assessment Ready Understand the benefits Windows Server AD DS running on Microsoft Azure virtual machines is well-suited as a branch office/perimeter network, a disaster recovery site, and for the deployment of network applications that require Active Directory. • Branch Office/Perimeter Network. Many Windows Server AD DS deployment scenarios are well-suited for deployment as VMs on Microsoft Azure. For example, suppose you have a company in Europe that needs to authenticate users in a remote location in Asia. The company has not previously deployed Windows Server Active Directory DCs in Asia due to the cost to deploy them and limited expertise to manage the servers post-deployment. As a result, authentication requests from Asia are serviced by DCs in Europe with suboptimal results. In this case, you can deploy a DC on a VM that you have specified must be run within the Microsoft Azure datacenter in Asia. Attaching that DC to a Microsoft Azure virtual network that is connected directly to the remote location will improve authentication performance. In addition, it may be more cost effective than maintaining a secure facility to house the server, while keeping Microsoft Azure virtual machines under the direct control of your centralized IT staff. Users and computers on the corporate network in remote locations may see improved authentication and group policy application performance by creating a site-to-site VPN connection between the Microsoft Azure virtual network and the router at their location. Once the Microsoft Azure virtual network has a site-to-site VPN tunnel configured, you can promote a replica domain controller on a Microsoft Azure virtual machine in that region. Associating the subnet that the clients are on and that the Microsoft Azure domain controller is in to use the Microsoft Virtual Machine Readiness Assessment Azure site in Active Directory will allow that Dc to service those clients without traversing the globe. • Disaster Recovery Sites. Microsoft Azure is also well-suited as a substitute to otherwise costly disaster recovery (DR) sites. The relatively low-cost of hosting a small number of domain controllers and a single virtual network on Microsoft Azure represents an attractive alternative. You can promote replica domain controllers for each domain in your forest by using Microsoft Azure virtual machines and a Microsoft Azure virtual network that connects to your on premises network. These virtual machines will run in a Microsoft Azure datacenter in any region of the globe that you choose. The Microsoft Azure virtual network allows these virtual machines to remain connected with your on premises network which helps keep Active Directory up-to-date. • Deployment of Active Directory Dependent Applications. You may want to deploy a network application on Microsoft Azure, such as SharePoint, that requires Windows Server Active Directory but has no dependency on the on-premises network or the corporate Windows Server Active Directory. In this case, deploying an isolated forest on Microsoft Azure to meet the SharePoint server’s requirements is optimal. Again, deploying network applications that do require connectivity to the on-premises network and the corporate Active Directory is also supported. If, at a later stage, you decide to extend connectivity to on premises clients, you could add a Site-to- Site VPN tunnel to the Microsoft Azure virtual network and establish a trust between forests or promote replica domain controllers in Microsoft Azure virtual machines for these on premises domains. Virtual Machine Readiness Assessment Key information • Use AD DS on Microsoft Azure as a Branch Office/Perimeter Network, for Disaster Recovery Sites, or deployment of Active Directory Dependent Applications. • Bring your own virtual machine from your on premises environment or build a new one from the Microsoft Azure image gallery. • Quickly set up virtual machines in response to changing business needs. • Pay only for what you use.

Understanding the SLA for each of the various Azure services you are leveraging will help you decide how to best deploy your workload. Read more Microsoft Azure Business Continuity Technical Guidance Service Level Agreements Virtual Machine Readiness Assessment Choose your scenario From virtualizing and then uploading an existing physical server to building an entirely new VM from a gallery image, there are lots of ways to go to the cloud. ▪ You can build a new virtual machine from the Microsoft Azure image gallery and migrate your data to it. ▪ You can migrate an existing VM from on-premises or another IaaS environment ▪ You can virtualize an existing physical server and upload it to Azure Microsoft Azure Deployments Used Windows Server AD DS or AD FS can be partly deployed on-premises and partly deployed on Microsoft Azure Virtual Machines. Depending on your business and technical requirements it is important to note that there are critical differences between running Windows Server AD DS and AD FS on Microsoft Azure virtual machines versus on-premises, and important decisions that affect design and deployment.

Domain Name Service (DNS) encompassing Microsoft DNS From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Microsoft DNS is the name given to the implementation of domain name system services provided in Microsoft Windows operating systems. Contents [hide] 1 Overview 2 DNS lookup client o 2.1 The effects of running the DNS Client service o 2.2 Differences from other systems 3 Dynamic DNS Update client 4 DNS server o 4.1 Common issues 5 See also 6 References 7 External links [edit] Overview The Domain Name System support in Microsoft Windows NT, and thus its derivatives Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003, comprises two clients and a server. Every Microsoft Windows machine has a DNS lookup client, to perform ordinary DNS lookups. Some machines have a Dynamic DNS client, to perform Dynamic DNS Update transactions, registering the machines' names and IP addresses. Some machines run a DNS server, to publish DNS data, to service DNS lookup requests from DNS lookup clients, and to service DNS update requests from DNS update clients. The server software is only supplied with the server versions of Windows. [edit] DNS lookup client Applications perform DNS lookups with the aid of a DLL. They call library functions in the DLL, which in turn handle all communications with DNS servers (over UDP or TCP) and return the final results of the lookup back to the applications. 2 Microsoft's DNS client also has optional support for local caching, in the form of a DNS Client service (also known as DNSCACHE). Before they attempt to directly communicate with DNS servers, the library routines first attempt to make a local IPC connection to the DNS Client service on the machine.

When you need to communicate with a remote machine, you usually do so by typing the machine name into the client software or command. DNS is then interro- gated by your system to discover the IP address of the remote system. Once that address has been obtained, your system can initiate communication through auto- matic and standard networking techniques. DNS extends beyond your organization, because it’s normal for your DNS servers to be configured to communicate with DNS on the internet and hand off the reso- lution of queries they can’t handle.
